“It is important for us to begin to investigate our heritage and to discover or rediscover the materials that are left unused on our doorstep. So much of the raw materials Artists and Craftspeople use has travelled unnecessarily or has been mined in atrocious working conditions. We re-empower ourselves when we change our working practice to include local materials harvested sustainably and begin to produce work indigenous to the environment and place we live
